Abstract
The growth inhibitory activity of p-fluorophenylalv~ine (PFP) (concentration
range 25--75 µg/ml) has been tested on callus initiation and early callus
growth and on suspension cultures derived from one diploid and three haploid
plants of Nicotiana syloestris. All the culture lines contained cells at more than
one level of ploidy; the cultures of haploid origin contained a high level of
haploid cells. Under conditions of partial growth inhibition by PFP there was,
despite the reduced sensitivity of the cultures of haploid origin, no preferential
growth of haploid cells in these cultures. Genotype not ploidy level determined
sensitivity to growth inhibition by PFP.
